The Whips

Study note

Each political party in Parliament has MPs called Whips. Their job is to organise their party's members, make sure MPs attend important votes, and encourage them to vote with their party. The Whips help keep the work of Parliament organised.

Memory tip: Whips organise their party's MPs and make sure they turn up to vote.
